Default Strict BB or Friendly BB?

Which do you prefer?

The straight talking, no nonsense Big Brother or the friendly banter Big Brother?

i like a bit of both to be honest

would be good if they assigned each of the big brother voices as bad/good for the whole series

Straight-talking, no nonsense, slightly cruel Big Brother for me.

I think the balance shifted this year toward being more friendly. I preferred it. No need to have an heir of authority all the time.

I do think they have been way too soft this year, would love to see another evil BB like series 5.

Ah, well Im liking the witty BB in the diary room so think that concept should be kept

However, I would like the overall BB house to be harsher - none of this they get a party or takeaway even if they lose the shopping budget tasks..........

I really love the wit. But want BB to be harsh again. Or at least how it was originally supposed to be (indifferent)

Mostly strict and authoritive but the BB5-7 era cheeky BB was great. For the last few years BB's been funny but a bit of a push-over and most of the time during this series BB's been too friendly. The BB 'character' has lost that scary, ever-watching tone

I like a medium...

But this booze, party, takeaway every night lifestyle has just been awful.

I prefer it when they're strict with them but I would like to see the Rich house/Poor house task make a return at some point, I thought that was brilliant

I'd like to see a non-interventionist nothingness BB, with a robot voice or something generic. For me the focus should be more on the housemates left to their own devices. Have them use touch screens for nominations or something, with the option of explaining who they're nominating. Let's see how they go unprompted. Just ideas...

I like how they gave them plenty of drink this year but I think they were far to nice in general, no hardships endured there at all

Well, they can still be evil and give them loads of booze like it used to happen.
